Texas man used Taekwando to fight off bloodthirsty pitbull that targeted his dog - but attack dog's female owner won't be punished for having it off-leash
A man said he was forced to use his Taekwando training to save his dog's life after a pitbul attacked them during a walk.
Fred Schiller from Houston, Texas told local ABC affiliate KTRK that he was walking his small dog, Verve, when the pitbull came running from across the street.
'The next thing I know is that pitbull makes a beeline,' Schiller said.
He said the pitbull went straight for Verve and started biting down on the dog's neck.
'I started kicking the pitbull,' Schiller said.

Even still, the pitbull wouldn't drop Schiller's dog. That's when he said he had to resort to his Taekwando training.
'I took the pitbull to the ground, and I started punching him in the head,' he said. 'I kept punching and punching. He wouldn't drop him. My dog was screaming. His eyes were bulging out. I thought he was gonna die.'
Ellen Blasio, a bystander, said she intervened without hesitation. She was bitten several times on her hands.
'Without thinking, I ran over to kind of grab the little dog,' she said.
Schiller was also bitten on one of his hands but was able to pin the dog down with the help of Blasio.
'I kept the pitbull pinned down with his head in mud 'cause I thought, 'OK, if I let this thing up, I'm next,'' Blasio said.
As they held the pitbull down, its owner drove up, got out of the car, and picked up her dog.
She has not been charged with a crime.
It took several days for BARC, the city's animal shelter and adoption facility, to identify the owner and her dog, but they finally found her Thursday.
The shelter told KTRK that she agreed to bring the dog to the shelter to test for rabies and quarantine.

BARC said that the owner will most likely not be charged for having her dog off-leash because their officers did not witness the encounter.
'I said, "That's all you're gonna do?" I said, "This dog almost killed my dog. It's a danger,"' Schiller said.
Schiller could go to the justice of the peace court and file to have the pitbull declared legally dangerous, but a judge would be the one to make the final call, said BARC.
